During my travelling across the Baltic states i had to do a stop also at this festival, which was organizated by Mr. Arma. I did everything to be in Lithuania from Estonia directly at this term, so at the start of my traveling i was very hurry up and then i found out, that i have enough time, so we were long time at the one place, but at the end was everything ok.
Already at Wednesday i started to phone to Arma to find out how to get the festival place. It was really not for my nerves, because even the own big organizator was not able to tell us where it is - somewhere near by Utena city. Even at the bus station nobody knew the place, untill one old wc grandmother (cha, cha, sorry for my english) was so unhappy from us, that she fought up and found out where is Indubakai village and which bus is going there. Idubakai village we nearly went over, because the village has 2 houses and about it, that this one is really the right one, we were informed by very very small title at the bus station and also the advise of one old guy from Utena, that after 7 kilometers will be sideway to the lake and that is directly near by Indubakai. So great, the place of festival we did not find now, but we built a tent by the lake at least.
At the morning i started to find the place of the festival. Head square in Indubakai i went over by 6 steps and very far in the field i see some ticket where is written Anticity Noise Festival, fuck it is great! I go maybe 500 m ahead and see some punk girl picking up the currant. Ha, the right direction. Next 500 m and i see 2 barns. At the roof of one of them is laying one punk, his dreadlocks hanging over and he is repairing the roof. Some meters on i can see bunch of cans and next figure is taking down the lids and bottoms and throwing them to the punk at the roof. Around the fire are sitting perhaps 3 figures and listening perhaps Merzbow and looking at me. I am introducing myself and they - where are you so fucking long time, we waited you already yesterday! So well, one double beer for new friendships and i am going for my friend Vlasta.
More and more people were comming. I found out, that should play 3 bands from Lithuania and one noiser from Russia and one band from Belarus, but nothing is on 100%, because they need to get the fucking visas. In the night was screened movie at the wall of the barn. Well, i was a little bit drunk in this time, but that was really extreme. The Russian documental films about geometry of hills, about balistic and similar problems. All with ultra fast commentary in Russian language, so really hell! I did not watch this long time and went rather to sleep.
At the evening was the fist live performance done by Mr. Arma and his crew from Disforija band. At the start of their production i shitted on it, but then i went to see them and i stayed there to the end. Bassguitar, keyboards, noisemachine, many wastes and of course necessary bottles of beer going around of all players and visitors and of course at one stop i was waiting too, so it was excellent!! This noise, which sometimes i liked very very much (headly when started to sing Mr. Arma), was noising, my dear friends, 3 hours! During making noise were changing people on bassguitar, keyboards and behind the neck of beerbottle, it was really hell! Only Amra was into the noise whole the time and then told me, that it was the longest noise in his life. By the fire beer again and Arma unpacked his distro stuff, where was big shit, but he makes fantastic zine called - Infected by Dementia written in English, dedicated only to noise and noise core.
Still than the Friday`s movie started, so Arma catched to be total drunk and his extempore by the fire was really unique. Sleeping in sitting position and then sleeping in the rain. Arma - you are really great! The movie did not interest me - the 1st May marchings, spartakiads (these are impossible things to translate to English, these were comunistic speciality to pleople were not boring) and noise or techno as music into it, nothing especial, i went to sleep - sober.
Still raining... so Arma and his crew went to the hill to ask god of Anticity Noise Festival to stop pissing on his sheeps. It was really a big commedy again. Drunken punx with bottles of beer are asking, swear-wording to heaven. But no help, but Arma told me, that the God is not talking with them when they are sober...
The first band of festival was Lithuanian Bora. It was very bad modern hard core and i did not like it, but better something than nothing. People were quite crazy. The concert was into one barn, where the punk repaired the roof, excellent room for gig, there were nothing to destroy, so people could do everything and to be crazy very, very much. The second band was P.K.I.K.T., the old Arma`s band. This band already could be called gore grind, but the players were quite weak. I could compare it with the first practise session of our Skoda 120. Headly the drummer need to practise very very much and in his drumming was total absence of blasting parts and i think, it is very important thing in grind core or not? 2 vocalists, one of them girl, but she sang deep vocal and i think, it was bad. Girl? Always screaming! cha, cha, cha. The second vocalist was the sharpest footballist from many punx matches, but his voice was excellent. Something like our Milan from Carnal Diafragma, but not so good. The song were really true grind core and no any death metal shit, so it was very big plus. But more practising would be the best for them. But the moshpit during their songs was fucking extreme good!
Disforia is the current Arma`s band and they played after P.K.I.K.T. The best band there, no doubt! Guys knew how to play on their instruments and also the drummer was able play blasting parts. Well, but if saw him our masters of grind core drumming maybe they would laugh very much, but his entusiasm was fucking big and i loved it very very much. The singer - Arma - sang in beautiful dress. An old coat where many papers were glued, so he looked like he aslept in the rubbish heap, an old motocykle glasses on eyes. it is waste of words, he looked really very funny. The voice? Excellent, fucking powerful and x positions. The music something between grind core, noise core, hard core, punk and a funny stupidity. An amusement really first class and people were so fucking crazy, that i could not believe, they sang, danced like madmen! Ha, ha, of course, i could not stay away from the moshpit and i had to go to do stupitidy too, even if it was really dangerous, but i am no novice in doing hell in moshpit, cha, cha, cha. Of course, people did not understand me, as usualy, and they looked at me like they have never seen A dance with wolves , cha, cha, cha. Stage diving was suicidalful and guys flew as aeroplanes without pilot directly to face, but i did not notice, that anybody take care about it. Uff, super insanity, really massacker. Disforija was excellent and i think, if they played at this year Obscene Extreme festival, so they would be one of the best bands there and they would be better one, than all the fucking boring death metal shits. As i said - bombastic show. Well, the bands from Russia and Belarussia did not come, so that was the end of live music.
At the end of festival some DJ played maybe techno or something like this, i shitted on it and i went rather to find somebody who had still some beer. I could not find anybody, so i even wanted to buy one, but it was impossible, because all beer was drunk over, but somebody went by car to the city for some. So i went to sleep. In the morning saying goodbye with all, changing adresses, crying, finding boots, remembering at past night, a small headache, etc. It was so beautiful!
Still some words about festival place. Whole place owned to one guy who 2 weeks before everything prepared together with some next guys. Total D.I.Y.! They dug holes for shitting, made woody WC, built the cabin where was prepared vegan food, repaired the roofs of all barns, cut off the place, everything they did themselves. And headly they had fantastic oven! The owner of this place was total noiser and had perhaps all noise stuff. He terrorized all people by noise 24 hours daily and the softest music which i listen during 3 days there were 5 minutes of Charles Bronson and 6 minutes of Hellnation, otherwise just and only noise! Fantastic guy, who took care about clean of whole area, picked up garbage. You could ask him about all and he was always prepared to help you, found out everything, repaired.
